Chapter 34
On the other end of the call, Charles could feel a chill run down his spine even before Henry spoke.
“You don’t believe me?” Seeing that Henry was silent, Charles knelt in front of Josie. “Go on, say something. Tell Mr. Gibson
all about it.”
Josie simply stared blankly at Charles. There were blood stains on her neck, but she stubbornly refused to say a word.
After a long silence, Henry berated Charles. “You’re sick in the head!”
Henry thought. “Is Charles really sick?”
Charles smiled sarcastically and said. “I’m sure Mr. Gibson is aware that Josie has an anxiety disorder. She has a tendency to inflict injuries on herself.” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“Look how stubborn you are!” Charles was sarcastic. He wanted to force himself on Josie but could not bring himself to do it, as she looked practically half–dead.
